Can anyone access the 3 Disney Channels on Apple TV?

Can you explain the steps for how to do this please.

I am also having this error and very frustrated. I happened after we updated the ATV over the weekend. All three Disney Apps are not working properly with Jr. giving us the 400-1 error. I am going to leave it unplugged overnight to see if it does anything, but I am not hopeful.

That is because NZ and AUS don't have the service yet. I heard we might get it soon because we now we have Disney XD.

Well my situation is no different than anyone here. Of the four apps on ATV: Watch ABC and the 3 Disney apps; only 3 of the four work. I want Watch ABC and unfortunately I am stuck with three Disney apps I could care less about. I DO NOT get an error message. If I did, that would at least be progress but I get the spinning ball with nothing other than that happening. It just continues to say Accessing ABC. The most annoying thing about this is that the Disney apps are "sister companies" to Watch ABC according to the ABC support person I spoke with. I was told that I am not the only one having this issue and unfortunately he didn't know what to do to help me. He basically said that he would like to hang up the phone with me to put me out of my misery because there is nothing he can do and there is no fix. I find this SO annoying! Especially since I have clicked on all 3 Disney apps, immediately got the main menu, and was the provided an activation code to proceed. These blogs continue to go round and round with the same topics of conversation but no solutions. How do we get someone to take action to resolve the issue? Clearly a forum discussing the matter isn't getting us anywhere. MP

This is what worked for me....

1- go into the watch disney junior (or any of the apps that you get the error code)

2- click on settings

3- click on sign out

4- sign back in

i have to do this from time to time. It's worth it, though!! My little girl loves Sheriff Callie!!

If you have an Apple TV, AND you have a cable provider that provides Disney, and they are both working, you should have no real problem seeing Disney channels through your Apple TV.

However, if you have both and they are working individually, your problem is probably transitory or a network problem, both of which you have no control over, so someone is probably working on the problem that you will never even be able to thank.

The third answer. … For the cord cutters. … If you do not have a cable subscription that provides Disney channels, you will NOT be able to see the Disney channels through the Apple TV. … The contracts with apple from all the providers are negotiated compromises, where the cable companies previous contract with the providers trump the Apple contracts. … At least for now. ;-) That will obviously change in the future. Why? … Because we do not like it, and enough customers will always make a difference.
